Hi, Doctor. I was wondering about thrush
- my daughter has had it since about 7wo
and she's now just over 7 months. We've
tried most conventional treatments but
to no avail. I've also tried
babydophilus but she still has thrush. |
|
13:08:39 |
Webmama_Tina |
yes i'll do that again |
|
13:08:58 |
Webmama_Tina |
oh and teh comings and goings are now
turned off but if you want to make it
take effect you have to log off and back
on again |
|
13:08:59 |
shoxie |
Is there anything you can recommend? I
have no symptoms but I'm worried that
I'm passing it to her |
|
13:09:02 |
Webmama_Tina |
sorry for the inconvenience |
|
13:09:13 |

Is she solely breastfed or on solids? |

today's topic: Open discussion about any
recurrent or persistent children's
health problems, including weakened
immunity to infections, allergies,
asthma, eczema, diabetes, chronic
headaches, and any others. The
conventional pediatric care for chronic
problems often amounts to using drugs
that temporarily alleviate symptoms, but
do nothing for the underlying problem.
Holistic pediatrics addresses the
imbalance that precedes chronic symptom
patterns, taking an approach that
relieves symptoms with natural medicines
and strengthens the body to prevent
recurrences. |

OK, then she should be on a really good

are dead unfortunately. |

But it hasn't had any effect. Where can
I get something better? |
|
13:11:06 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Talk to the manager at the health food
store about the most reliable brand. And
she should be taking a broad spectrum
probiotic formula, not just bifidus. |
|
13:11:28 |
shoxie |
Ok, broad spectrum. I'll try that.
Should I follow the dosage on the
bottle? |

The routine homeopathic medicine for
thrush is Borax, so you may want to try
that too. |

Ok, I will definitely try that. I just
wonder if there's some underlying
condition - it scares me. |
|

Otherwise constitutional homeopathic
treatment would be a good idea. |

There is a very good method in Chinese
medicine for strengthening bone
development in children. You should see
a qualified Chinese herbalist. |
|
13:14:31 |
RandallNeustaedter |
You will not need to see them often, but
someone with pediatric knowledge would
be excellent at this. Orthopedists have
nothing for him. |

Then you need good constitutional care.
Not to sound like a broken record, but
Chinese medicine's ability to strengthen
the immune system and constitutional
homeopathy are the best treatments for
candida in children. |

Eczema is a different story and can
benefit from some good supplements as
well. Especially fish oil. |

you'll drive yourself crazy if you try
to figure out what he's allergic to"" |
